PLUS 0.3% Bundle Rebate
In ADDITION to bank rebates (if any), Bundle Home Loans gives a rebate of 0.3% of loan size (net at drawdown) for ANY bank or product, eg:
Why should I fix?
A low fixed rate can still save you more money as you can get an immediate benefit from today as opposed to waiting for the drop to occur. There can only be a maximum of 2 cuts to zero, which may take a long time or unlikely to occur.
Always worth doing a calculation for your situation, eg:
If you have an existing loan and your rate is 3.18%, fixing at 2.68% will save you 0.5% each year.
On a $500k loan, that is a saving of $2500 every year.
If you're saving 0.5% and go with a lender giving rebates eg Westpac $6,000 for 2 properties, plus our Bundle Rebate of $1,500, that's a further $7,500 in rebates, plus $2,500 interest savings, you are getting a benefit of $10,000 in just one year!
